The conversion became formalized on January 1, 2012. The real estate brokerage has 82 licensed real estate agents and nearly 200 listings in the Colorado Springs market area. Professionals Realty Group Colorado Springs is the No. 1 non-affiliated real estate brokerage in Colorado Springs for size and No. 2 for volume with approx. $3 million in gross commission sales this year.

“I chose to align with Professionals Realty Group USA because the brand embodies the same core values that I believe in – fostering a culture of collaboration and belonging, while infusing my brokerage with powerful technology to further support our agents’ productivity,” says Stephen Aragon, Broker/Owner of Professionals Realty Group Colorado Springs.

ProsUSA is the sister-company of Australian-based Professionals Real Estate Group, an organization founded in 1976 which has a global network of more than 350 offices throughout Australasia. CEO Glyn Morgan and President Glenn Melton led the expansion of the brand into the U.S last year.

“We are honored to have Steve and his team of real estate agents join Professionals,” says Scott Hurlock, senior vice president of franchise development for ProsUSA. “They represent the same old-fashioned, new world approach to real estate that our brand stands for nationally and abroad.”

Aragon, a Colorado-native born and raised in Denver, opened his brokerage in 2007 at the height of a dynamic housing climate. “Real estate has been picking up in Colorado Springs and, while the market slowed down the last couple of years, we never experienced the same decline as some other areas nationally because our military bases - Air Force Academy, Shrever AFB, Fort Carson, Norad, and Peterson – created stabilization with jobs,” he comments.

The brokerage’s real estate agent population grew quickly and Aragon credits “offering a business model to agents that does not penalize them for being productive.” New technology available to agents include Mobile Lead Pro, a mobile technology, Wordpress 3, websites with built-in search engine optimization, and i-Dashboard, an advanced online transaction and CRM tool.

Professionals Realty Group Colorado Springs has two offices – located at 4760 Flintridge Drive, Colorado Springs, CO 80918 and 6980 Mesa Ridge Pkwy, Fountain, CO 80817 – with plans to open a third office in spring 2012. Aragon’s future plans include at least five new offices in Colorado Springs, and then expansion into surrounding areas such as Fort Collins and Castlerock.
